SherkSpear

This is the plugin you need when you have to add responsive slideshows and banners in carousels for your websites. 
The plugin implements widgets and shortcodes on adding the slideshows/banners into your contents.
Custom post type SherkBanners lets you add slides with captions and links. The good thing to this is you are able to display the SherkBanner anywhere in your website through widgets and shortcodes repeatedly.
The plugin uses Bxslider jQuery plugin. Parameters are added into the widget’s configuration and also with the shortcode.
You can add custom categories to your banners/slideshows for you to organize it easily.

Poodle Plugins

This plugin will allow you to choose a custom URL for your author links, instead of the standard WordPress author page. 
This can be useful if you want to link to your own Twitter, LinkedIn or other social media profile.
There are two areas where this plugin can be configured:
Firstly, a global settings section is available under WordPress Settings. Second, under each users profile page.
A user can set their own custom URL on their profile page, and this will apply just to them. 
This can can be overriden by the global admin setting, if the ‘Override Individual Authors’ setting is checked.
Custom author URL’s also redirect author pages when directly accessed. 
For example if your user is called Bob, and you try to access https://yourblog.com/author/bob, it will redirect.

WP Custom Author URL

Set a custom URL for your author name link, on a global or author-specific basis. Also redirects all author pages.
